It is an improved picture this morning with a lot of cloud and some patches of blue sky and hints of sun.

Golly, what a lovely surprise again!

This morning I have another 6cm to report and, once again, Hirafu reporting up to 20cm at higher elevations.

Some more fresh snow again with the ski areas (that report) reporting up to 15-20cm.

We have received a lovely layer of fresh snow.

It is not particularly cold, but we have some fresh snow this morning! Hurray!

Not the most inspiring of mornings with warm temperatures and rain.

As I write this it is now snowing in some places, though the sun is shining through in others (Hanazono).

There's some more snow to report this morning, yey!

It might not be particularly cold this morning but as I write this there is some nice snow falling from the skies.

It was great to see some good snow falling again leaving us with a fresh layer this morning.

Another 'dusting' kind of snowfall this morning and it is (has been) snowing lightly.

We have a slight layer of snow out there this morning.

It is a beautiful and very warm day. As it seems to be across Japan. Very 'spring'.
